Question:
My wife has broken a bone in her foot and needs to use a wheelchair. We do have one, but I am 6' 7" tall and the handles are too low. Do you know of any adaptation we can buy that offers higher handles for me to hold whilst pushing? ~Peter
Answer: Many wheelchairs (especially pediatric wheelchairs made for children, teens or those made for small adults) are made with adjustable-height push handles. So I don't see why your wife's standard wheelchair handles couldn't be removed and replaced with the adjustable handles. Consult with an occupational/physical therapist or a mobility devices distributor to find handles that suit your model of chair.
